All Stars Win Base Ball Game—Large Number of Visitors Daring Past Week. James Fitzgerald, secretary of the athletic association, who returned to his home in Kokomo last Monday morning, is reported to be suffering from a severe attack of typhoid fever. White throwing acorns at each other out in the grove last Sunday afternoon, Edward Shields, who is a member of the athletic association board, was hit in the right eye, and as a resut the member is now in serious condition. At first the total loss of the eye was feared, but present indications are that it will be saved. The number of students who have complied with the college rule of obtaining parential permission in writing to indulge in foot ball is so small that there will not be a team at St. Joseph this year. Among the juniors there is a larger number and they are out practicing every day for the games that they have in view. Thus far there is no definite schedule. 'Last Sunday’s ball game was won by the All Stars. The first inning was a row of errors by the All Stars, and a string of runs by their opponents. The next five periods were an exhibition of good clean ball. T.he sixth proved to be a strong rope of errors by the Religious, and a bundle of scores by their opponents. The rest of the game was a uselessly longdrawn squabble that ended in a final count of an eight to nine score. That ends the fall season, during which the All Stars won two, lost one, and tied another. The listless junior’s game in the morning was won by the Religious.
